However, another issue is that a player who realized they were losing could simply drop out of the game. You could rule that dropping out means losing, but then a player could make it look like their opponent was the one who dropped out by appending an extra move to their audit trail. One way around that would be to allow players to download the submitted audit trails and later amend their own, but that could result in some rather drawn-out games. | |
